HUMOR: You know you play CoH/V too much when,....

1) (for those who live in NY) the Long Island Railroad takes you around Paragon City & the Staten Island Ferry takes you around Rogue Isles.

2) Every time you open a door to a building you find yourself in a mish.

3) Your local clothing store is either called "Icon" or they have "The Facemaker" working there.

4) You walk around the streets & see the Goldbrickers flying around + other foes taking potshots at you.

5) You have the urge to destroy parking meters & stuff.

Anyone got anymore?

Every time you read a plaque on a wall you feel the need to find the rest of them so you can get the badge.

You look at a 'You know you play CoX too much thread' and think "I remember when they used to be funny."


Seriously: When walking through the local mall on the upper floor, you see a shop on the floor below and have to stop yourself just hopping over the barrier because, well, falling damage doesn't hurt that much.


Disclaimer: The above may be humerous, or at least may be an attempt at humour. Try reading it that way.

You look at a "You know you play CoX too much" thread and wait for Ravenswing to post about remembering the ones in the good ole days.

You find yourself clicking "glowies" left & right.

You open your holiday gift only to find Frosties that attack you.

You go into your local coffee shop, and instead of ordering your morning cup of java you say "SB PLZ!"

I got nothin'.

Never been very good at this sort of thing.


My mind wanders so often you've probably seen its picture on milk cartons. - Me... the first person version of the third person Steelclaw

When you recieve emails at work with the subject Re:ERP and you wonder if someone wants to role play.....

You say to your co-workers: BRB bio.

Your said co-workers know better than to ask what you did over the weekend, becasuse it will sound something like this ". . .after dealing with Ghost Widow, we pulled Black Scorpion and Mako. . ."

You know you play CoH/V too much when random acts of kindness don't cater to FUD and DOOM.

When somebody insults you by saying "You like *word for a male chicken*!" you respond with "Why, yes. Yes I do."

When you're looking for something, you swear you can hear the glowie sound.

When you're tired, you claim to be 'out of End'

When you try to fly, but land flat on your face.

When you don't like what someone is wearing, you say "Your costume sux"

When something goes wrong, or something is too good to be true, you yell "IT'S A NEMESIS PLOT!"

That's all I got for now :P


I was doing some playthroughs of City of Heroes. Now they will serve as memories of a better time ...

When you see a car speeding down the street and approaching a large dirty gutter puddle, you try to estimate the magnitude and AOE coverage of the nuke.


Teams are the number one killer of soloists.

 

Posted

When you try to figure out what archetypes/powersets your real-life friends, relatives and acquaintances would have.

CoH has actually increased my awareness of historical plaques where I live and in places I've traveled because I stop to read them when I can now.

This is actually fairly common in businesses that do work in multiple locations, over IM, or via teleconference. 'Bio-break' is a term used in many MMOs, MUDs, and other online games, so it's prevalence is quite high and growing.

When you are running with your buddies and you stop for and announce for an end break.

When you are waiting tables on a Friday night and a table tips on top of the gratuity amount and one can't help think it must be Double XP weekend.

When you are at a club and you see a group of girls you wish you had a Snipe so you can just pull the one you want.

Its been 6 years and you're still subbed.

You throw CoH-isms into everyday conversation.

You can quote Television story dialogue verbatim.

You've started talking like Resistance.

You've decoded the Praetorian Clockwork and have created your own dictionary.


"The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not a bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly."

Snipe's a bit harsh, aint it? TP Foe, Challenge or Taunt for those of us that like our girls still breathing.

Aren't these two a prerequisite for your job?

You see a car heading towards you and don't bother to get out of the way, since the worst it can do is gently nudge you.

Your wife asks you why you're picking all the marshmallows out of the jello, and you explain that you have to take out the mitos before you can destroy the nucleus.

You see a kid dressed up as Batman on Halloween and warn him that he's going to get genericized.
